Caption Contest: Customize This NYPost.com Bike Ad

Transportation Alternatives' Noah Budnick sends along this screen grab of a Linus Bikes ad recently served up to him on the New York Post's website. It's a testament to someone's ad placement algorithms that this puppy can find its intended audience even on the site of a bike-hating rag like the Post.

Here's a thought experiment: If you were a bike company and you could somehow customize how your ad displays on different sites, what message would you put on your NYPost.com ads? "Driving Steve Cuozzo Out of His Mind Since 1995"? Leave your suggestions in the comments.
